Question

36q = 18 how to solve

Answer 1

Answer:

q = 0.5

Explanation:

Given expression:

$\sf 36q = 18$

Divide both sides by 36

$\sf \frac{36q}{36} = \frac{18}{36}$

Simplify following

$\sf q = \frac{1}{2} \quad or \quad 0.5$

Put q = 0.5 in equation, to check:

36q = 18

36(0.5) = 18

18 = 18

Hence verified, q = 0.5

Answer 2

$\huge\underline{\underline{\boxed{\mathbb {SOLUTION:}}}}$

Given:

▪ $\longrightarrow \sf{36q = 18}$

$\leadsto$ Divide ÷ both sides we get:

$\longrightarrow \sf{ \dfrac{36q}{36} = \dfrac{18}{36} }$

$\longrightarrow \sf{q= \dfrac{18}{36} }$

$\longrightarrow \sf{q= \underline{\dfrac{1}{2} }}$ ✓

$\leadsto$ Simplify :

$\longrightarrow \sf{q= \dfrac{18}{36} = \dfrac{9}{18} = \dfrac{3}{6} }$

$\longrightarrow \sf{q= \dfrac{1}{2}}$

$\longrightarrow \sf{q=\underline{0.5}}$ ✓
